Graham Greene books at Amazon.co.uk in United Kingdom Greene, (Henry) Graham (1904-1991), English novelist. Born in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, Greene was educated at the University of Oxford, and in 1926 he was converted to Roman Catholicism. He worked for the London Times from 1926 to 1929. In 1935 he was film critic for the Spectator, a British newspaper, and in 1940 he was named literary editor. From 1942 to 1943 he worked for the British Foreign Office in western Africa, and after World War II (1939-1945) he traveled widely.

Greene first gained popularity with his novel Stamboul Train (1932), a spy thriller. Greene categorized this and novels such as England Made Me (1935) and The Ministry of Fear (1943) as "entertainments." Greene's more serious novels, which are concerned with the moral, social, and religious problems of the time, include Brighton Rock (1938), The Power and the Glory (1940), The Heart of the Matter (1948), and The End of the Affair (1951).

Greene's other major works include The Quiet American (1955), Our Man in Havana (1958), A Burnt-out Case (1961), and The Human Factor (1978). Greene also wrote plays, numerous essays, and two volumes of autobiography. Greene's work is characterized by vivid detail and a detached portrayal of characters under social, political, or psychological stress.
